Inheritance design of residence based on Huizhou traditional dwellings
Huizhou traditional dwellings have distinctive features such as climate adaptability and white walls and gray tiles. However, the building opening’s size is small and poor insulation performance lead to non-uniformity of indoor illumination, wet and cold winters. This study aims to design a new Huizhou dwelling, taking the typical Huizhou traditional dwelling, Yuqing Hall, as the prototype, new Huizhou dwelling is designed to meet occupants’ living needs and planning functional spaces while inheriting New Huizhou dwelling to the greatest extent. Then using DesignBuilder to simulate, and process the envelopes improvement scheme for indoor lighting and thermal environment that don’t meet the standards. The results showed: There is a gap between the indoor lighting and thermal environment of the preliminary design and the standards, while introduces the light from the stairs into the living room or changes the window size to make the indoor light meet the standards, the wall material of the new Huizhou dwelling uses KPI porous bricks, the roof with air layer and insulation layer and add attic can improve the indoor thermal environment. The results of this study can be used as a reference object when renovating traditional dwellings and designing occupants’ dwellings.
